Good intro, the shadow of the scroller on the game text is a nice touch (and without this I would think it was a rip-off of the old Accumulators intro). Using such a legendary tune doesn’t hurt either!
wOw — never heard of these guys or BBS. Must be early 89/90 stuff. Judging by areacode, my bet would be this bbs later turned into “Flying Saucer”, ran by Uli/Spreadpoint. Pretty famous BBS in the early days.
The subsoftware were Belgian guys so spread mainly in Europe. You’re right, it was in 90-91.
I still have a lot of their utilities compilations and also some cracks from them (Edd the Duck, Exterminator…).
Yeah some nice ones there such as Sliders and Web of Terror remind me of Illusion
(VF/SR/PNA) intros. I don’t see Edd the Duck or Exterminator so I wonder if these games use any other nice intros 😀
The zik by Bit Arts is stunning!! Good intro with a proper sine curve 😉 Few bits there I do not like that e.g., plain white “those again” fonts on the background… The shadow effect is ace.

outstandin’ tune by bit arts from the rsi megademo, nice scroller in a well done production.
nice sine scroll – good copper colours – and agree, shadow is a really nice touch
Wasteland… great tune. Also the other elements as pure classic. Font shadow is great but all together feels somehow “too much recycled”.
Ahhhh, the classic Amiga design! You see this, and you know it’s Amiga right away. The scroller shadow is really nice attention to detail.

I wonder which one was first? I saw a very similar Intro by ‘Vision Factory’ (Kick Off & Microprose release).
Well… I wonder too. Just looked them up and they seem to have more intros that were inspired by other groups… http://janeway.exotica.org.uk/author.php?id=31287

Any nice cracktros on them? If so send them over so I can add them here

Yes, they seem to be inspired by others 😉 Musashi9, I send you the files for your review in private.
Nice. I quite like the contrast between plain white text and copper colour scroller. The tune is indeed top notch.
